gotta wait and see if anyone from warriors gets hurt or ejected before the series finishes

I took some cavs +185 to win the championship at intertops this am

I see the argument. A LeBron team facing a young team in the finals. Miami was an easy pick that year.

But beyond that those series have nothing to do with each other. That Miami team was miles better than this Cavs team, and the Warriors this year are much better than that Thunder team...

not really, after lebron, wade, bosh, the heat had all scrubs

now the cavs have a deep team: jr smith, mozgov, shumpert, tristan thompson

these guys are younger and more athletic than that heat team.

so beyond the fact that the heat had a former finals mvp and a multiple all star to complement lbj, they weren't better than this cavs team?

also iirc battier and miller made a number of huge 3's in that series, chalmers had a monster 25 point performance in a key win in game 4... the heat's role players vastly outplayed okc's in that series. i doubt cleveland's role players will outplay golden state's.

The Warriors will win. Homecourt might be protected throughout however (although that rarely happens).

Jr smith can go off at anytime and tristan thompson is going to be a force all series

I don't necessarily disagree with that but what does it have to do with my post? I know Cleveland has some capable role players but Miami had some too. And they had wade.

Not to mention Cleveland's role players have to matchup with Golden State's role players which is much different than going up against guys like nick collison, perkins, and the other scrubs okc had to complement their big 3.

I thought that might happen last year. I wouldn't necessarily be surprised this year either but I think they'll end it in 5 or 6.

I am saying that they will outplay the warriors role players.

Look for a big payday with Cavaliers in 6 prop

[Ballerholic]

I took the Warriors to win it all before the playoffs began, but here is why the Cavs definitely have a good chance. Lebron is literally unstoppable. Nobody can guard him, especially nobody on the Warriors. He's going to be double teamed on the drive and will just kick out to an open shooter. Not to mention he's got Bigs who can rebound and the best playoff defense behind him. The Cavs will slow down the game and make the Warriors play in the half court.

I obviously like Cleveland to steal one in Oakland.

Thompson is a monster on the glass but Draymond Green is a much better all around player. Dellavedova has had some nice moments in the playoffs but Livingston is a better player imo. Bogut is much better than Mozgov bar free throw shooting. JR Smith and Iggy are very different players so it's impossible to compare them.

Don't see how any of Cleveland's role players are better than their counterparts.

[Seto]

I don't think people realise how good Golden State is or how easy Cleveland had it in the East. I guess we'll see what happens.

[t-wizzle]

The Warriors will force James to take jumpshots. The entire playoffs his shot has been off. His 3 point % is laughable. He's capable of the occasional hot streak but Kerr will live with that if it happens.

This time off gives Kerr a week to gameplan. I guarantee his focus will be to force James to shoot jumpers. The difference here is that LeBron can't simply outmuscle Green in the post like he has to Carroll and Butler. Even when he's able to drive by Green, he has to deal with a 7 footer at the rim and longer more athletic defenders who can disrupt James' passing lanes.

How many teams get knocked out in the first 2 rounds 2 years in a row and win it all the next year? GS not ready for the physicality the Cavs will bring. I see them splitting the first 4 games and then collapsing under the pressure and losing in 6. Plus, Cleveland has the real MVP who has willed teams to win and will do it again this series. Which teams have Curry and Thompson led to a championship?

With that said, I'm still waiting for GS to take game 1 before laying any series bets on the Cavs. Should be able to get better than +200 before game 2.

[MoMoneyMoVaughn]

Cavs are good value but, lets be honest, they could lose.

You can get better than +200 right now.

LOL forgot the nickel but I'm guessing it'll be around +240 or so when they go down a game.

[t-wizzle]

You'd get much better than that.

Higher

[LT Profits]

Of course, but as of now I think that if the Cavs win, it could ONLY be in 6 games. I highly doubt they win two games in Oakland so that eliminates Cavs in 4 or 5 and I also doubt the win in Oakland would come in a Game 7.

[nyplayer33]

gs in 5 max

[jjgold]

JR Smith plays great defense now and passes
One of the greatest transformations I have ever seen

[lakerboy]

Cream rises to the top. The warriors are one of histories greatest teams. The cavaliers will go down in 5. James will once again lose in the finals for the 4th time.

[cankid]

GS it is, Def will suffocate the Cavs, look for low scores for the most part

[7secondsOrLess]

warriors? i thought u said the rockets will be in the finals. are you gonna take both sides again?

[LT Profits]

Cavaliers have a defense too though and they are more physical than Warriors.

Green and Bogut are not physical players?

[Seto]

5Dimes already has a line for Cavs/Dubs game 1

Everybody disrespecting Houston lol.

[ZetaPsi808]
